Expired Opti Race Team 1 – 2019

The Racing Optimist class is an exciting opportunity to fully experience the fun and challenge of sailing at a higher level. Designed for students who have taken one or two weeks of an Optimist course or demonstrated an ability to handle the boat independently. Students will develop racing concepts including starts, upwind and downwind sailing, as well as boat trim for speed, racing rules, strategy, tactics, and more. There are two four week Opti Racing sessions during the season. The class meets in the morning from 9am-12pm. On some Fridays, the students will be encouraged to compete in the local TCYS regattas. These regattas are held around the metro area. The course fee does not include regattas fees.

NOTE: For this session only, the time has been changed to afternoons: 12:30pm to 3:30pm.

Lessons are offered in four-week groups.  Opti race teams will meet daily from 9:00 am to noon.
Teams will have some full-day Fridays (for students wishing to compete in TCYS regattas.)

Regatta fees are not included in your registration and will be extra.
Classes around the 4th of July weekend are postponed to the following week
